DNN-Forum

Hi...I uploaded a skin package that contained just an ascx file and the css (no html).  I am fairly new to DNN/Dreamweaver but have figured out how to change images out in container headers, etc. in this case, specified using the css file and inserting the class info into the appropriate spot in the ascx file.   The basics here...

I created a class for the logo header image (the parent page logo) and figured out where to put that in the ascx file. Now I want to have a hotlink on the parent page logo to link back to the parent page, but since its defined in CSS I am at a loss...In this case, the child portal is a newsletter with it's own skin package.  I am "poking and hoping" here so far to no avail.  Or...is there a way to create a second home page (or any page) that links to the parent portal from a child portal?  Either method will work - I just want readers of the newsletter to be able to go back to the main website and so far all I can think of is to put a link inside a container!  Don't want to do that...thanks

Hi

I would replace the logo (skin token) in the skin ascx file with an image and a hard link to the portal home page.

Replace this code <dnn:LOGO runat="server" id="dnnLOGO" /> with a link to an image <a href="http://www.urlOfTheMainPortal.com"><img src="<%=SkinPath%>YourImageName.jpg" width="100" height="100" border="0" /></a> all you need to change in above is the file name and size as well as full url to your main portal, you need to upload the logo into the skin folder. You could use hard link for the image instead of the skin path as well

THANK YOU!  The skin didn't come with the logo token (control) built into the design so I put that in to verify placement etc. then replaced with the <%skinpath%> code and we are good to go!
